I was once lost. I am now found. My place is here. Face down in the ground. Kick me and hit me.
Beat me till I cry. Sometimes I cant wait till I die. I wonder how it feels to feel no pain. I wonder
if the feeling would drive me insane. I wonder if anyone thinks my story is true. Every time
someone asks me what happened to you. I want to scream the truth, but instead I lie. I want to
tell you that Im afraid I might die. The hits burn like fire, and the blood burns my skin. If I stand
up the fire will come again. So Ill lay still and feel my blood pour. As I watch two feet walk back
through the door. One hand grabs my arm and the other my neck. Two fingers go under my jaw
just to check. Im still alive, and my pulse is still there. In my heart I know you dont care. I once
was alive. But now I am dead. You can see it in my eyes. You can hear what I?ve said.
